WATTY 2019 WINNER Hale, a state of the art android, can do nearly anything a human can. He cooks meals, cleans and organizes the house, repairs broken appliances, and runs errands. He can even provide for the more carnal needs of his owner. None of these tasks should present any challenge for Hale, and they don't-until he meets his next door neighbour, Rayner. Rayner seems like an unassuming gardener, but he asks Hale a lot of questions. Does Hale wish he could smell or taste food? What would he look like if his appearance hadn't been chosen for him? From the moment they meet, Hale runs into errors in otherwise simple tasks. He experiences bizarre sensations that none of his diagnostic tools can explain, and struggles to appease the people in his owner's social circle. As the errors in his programming begin to wear on his owner's patience, Hale faces the most difficult decision yet. If he can't evolve to meet her needs, he'll be returned and recycled into parts for future androids. If he does evolve, is he still just an android? Or something more? In all this, Rayner is the only man who can help him, and Rayner only has one question left for Hale. What does he want? Hale wasn't designed to want anything, but perhaps he can find the answer in the man with all the questions.

I participated in a writing challenge on IG spanning fourteen days, writing a thousand words per day. The creators released a new writing prompt each day that we had to incorporate into our short stories. In my main series, we meet the fae monarchs multiple times over the course of six books, but we never hear their stories. For example, we know the Winter Court hates the Summer Court, but why? This backstory, set in the legendary Atlantis, will answer that question. Warning: this short story ends on a cliffhanger. However, I plan to turn this into a full book, making it the first book in the spin-off series about the fae monarchs. ••CONTAINS SEX SCENES, HINTS OF POLY LOVE (POLYAMORY), DARK THEMES, CUSSING, SOME VIOLENCE, ETC.
